Gravity Probe B mission completes data collection
NASA's Gravity Probe B satellite has been orbiting the Earth for more than 17 months. It used four ultra-precise gyroscopes to generate the data required for this unprecedented test. Fifty weeks worth of data has been downloaded from the spacecraft and relayed to computers in the Mission Operations Center at Stanford University, Stanford, Calif. Scientists have begun the painstaking task of data analysis and validation, which is expected to take approximately one year.

Great Sir Ulli,
Very interesting informations about gravity probs by NASA , we learn always a lot of things with you .
Thanks a lot

There is some very recent news from Gravity-B here.
Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream.
If some how put that data on

If some how put that data on the the grid for us how help with. I have been keeping and probe from the launch. Bring the data over this site and I think there will be no shortage of computer power. You can put mine on the list

Excellent idea! A year is a long time to wait...

RE: RE: If some how put

Give that years data raw or otherwise this grid should be used to process it. I don't think the boys at Stanford would mine at all. We can some BOINC heavy hitters project. I have sent them e-mail and told them. The probe is still up in orbit but out of gas to cool it. The gyros running so now what good science can done on post mission with the instruments. There is an exotic telescope in it that they used site a guide star. Now we lost some part probes main focus but the gyros may be able point the telescope at new objects.
